Knee Pain (Arthritis/Tear)

Knee arthritis and tears are debilitating conditions that can significantly hinder mobility and quality of life. At SoftWave by Molotherapy, we specialize in treating these conditions using SoftWave therapy, a revolutionary non-invasive treatment that stimulates the body's natural healing mechanisms to effectively alleviate pain and promote recovery.


Understanding Knee Arthritis and Tears

Knee arthritis involves the degeneration of joint cartilage and the underlying bone, leading to pain and stiffness. Similarly, knee tears, including those affecting ligaments or menisci, involve damage to these tissues, causing pain, swelling, and compromised joint function. Both conditions can arise from chronic wear and tear, acute injury, or underlying biomechanical issues.


SoftWave Therapy: A Comprehensive Approach

SoftWave therapy utilizes shock waves, or acoustic waves, to promote healing and reduce inflammation. This technology enhances blood flow, accelerates tissue repair, and reduces pain without the need for invasive procedures. At SoftWave by Molotherapy, we apply this innovative therapy to not only target the knee but also address potential referral areas that can influence knee health.


Our Treatment Protocol for Knee Arthritis and Tears

  • Mapping the Treatment Area: Our treatment begins with a thorough assessment of the knee and surrounding areas. We map out all the affected and potential referral regions to ensure comprehensive treatment coverage.

  • Addressing Referral Areas: The treatment targets key muscles that can refer pain and influence knee function, including the gracilis, adductor brevis and longus, vastus lateralis, semitendinosus, semimembranosus, biceps femoris, gastrocnemius, soleus, and rectus femoris. Addressing these muscles helps alleviate stress on the knee and supports overall joint health.

  • Customized Treatment Intensity: We adjust the intensity of the SoftWave therapy based on the patient's specific needs and pain tolerance, ensuring a comfortable yet effective treatment experience.

Benefits of SoftWave Therapy for Knee Conditions

  • Pain Relief: SoftWave therapy significantly reduces pain by targeting inflammation and stimulating the body's natural pain-relieving mechanisms.

  • Improved Mobility: Patients often experience increased joint mobility and a reduction in stiffness, enhancing their ability to perform daily activities.

  • Non-Invasive Treatment: As a non-surgical treatment option, SoftWave therapy offers a significant advantage by eliminating the risks and downtime associated with surgical interventions.

  • Quick and Convenient Sessions: Each session lasts about 20-30 minutes, with treatments typically scheduled to fit the patient's lifestyle without major disruptions.


Treatment Schedule and Precautions

  • Frequency of Treatment: We recommend starting with treatments twice a week for the first two weeks, followed by once a week for the next four weeks to maximize the healing process.

  • Patient Guidance: To avoid the risk of injury or rupture during the healing process, we advise patients to avoid overloading the affected knee for 4-6 weeks. This precaution helps ensure that the knee heals properly and regains strength gradually.
